If you want to learn about art start with reading something like wikipedia to get a sense of art history. For Western art start around the Renaissance and then move towards the present. As you come across an artist google image them or look on wikiart and get a sense of their body of work and overall style. By the end of it you should be able to see a work you've never seen before and place it in the correct century. You should also have a rough idea of what type of art you like the best.

Guessing the artist name a website does nothing to actually educate you.

noted. thank you.

This is good if you're an art history student and are looking for a nice and easy way to quiz yourself, but it doesn't really fit the goal you're setting. What would be more beneficial to you would be to pick some really good artists, and study each one. There are many ways to do this: Read a biography, visit an art museum and view their works, read up on the style that they formed, their legacy, etc. Again, this website is good as far as sharpening the knowledge you already have, but if you're looking to educate yourself, reading is a good place to start.

what is a camera? there's simply no need for good paintings anymore.

>>2897961
camera doesn't actualy see as a human eye, and it can't capture subjectivity

>>2897969
still completely changed the role of paintings.
and the camera itself may not interpret the things it captures, but how it is handled, what and how someone chooses to capture something, still shows the operators perception. plus, it can be used for more than just still images.
